I've seen a few Japanese made epiphones les pauls on ebay. The ones that were made after orville and orville by gibson were discontinued. Are these guitars any good? I've noticed the pickups are Japanese ephiphones and not usa pickups. These guitars looks very nice, with nice grainy tops on...

On my surfing through yahoo auctions I discovered a store called guitarcraft that sell japanese guitars internationally. There prices seem too good to be true.

I recently visited the fernandes/Burny Japanese site at http://www.fernandes.co.jp . All the Burny Les paul models have a three screw truss rod cover, even the higher end models. Does this mean that all of the burny line is made in Korea. I have read a great deal of conflicting information...

I own a NALS 60 Korean made tokai custom love rock. The quality is good. The body is mahogany, the top is maple veneer, and the neck is canadian maple. As far as I know these were made specifically for the Canadian market. The Korean made models for the European market use different woods, ie...

Why do so many burny's on ebay have no serial numbers. How can you indentifiy if it was made in Japan or some other country?

I want to buy a japanese les paul custom guitar. Is the esp Edward the best way to go, or are the quality of the used burny/greco better. Some of the better burny/greco used models seem a little overpriced when I can get a esp Edward brand new for less. Also, allot of the burny models don't...

I purchased my tokai les paul custom last month. As it is a heavy guitar I want to get some strap locks and a durable, comfortable guitar strap. I do not want to modify my tokai guitar in any way, as I am reluctant about ripping out the existing guitar strap pegs. I have heard some bad things...

I don't really understand why Gibson is against tokai copies in the U.S. If you visit the websites of Jay Turser, Michael Kelly, Esp, dean, shector, aries, Gregg Bennet, Heritage they all make copies. True, some don't make exact replicas but some do (visit the Jay Turser site, he has two...
